Benny, the elbow gets wider as it gets flatter so the cross section is consistant.

No, it's the pic angle, that fitting is exactly the same as the one forward of it on the snorkle, just turned if that makes sense.

G'day Benny_IIA, those black rubber fittings are the same standard fittings as supplied originally on the Isuzu Landy, they have the same volumetric efficiency as the 3inch tube they are attached to, so more than enough air!

Hi Peter, a bit further south on the Starke-Wakooka track, east of Nivens Hut, that pic was on the track into Cape Melville, some the creek crossings where up to my waist sitting in the Landy, but none of us were prepared to risk getting out for a pic, due to the hungry looking large lizards we spotted close to most of the water holes. Mind you I was keen to put the shotgun to good use, but for some reason, neither of my mates were. Someones gotta drive, and shoot.

I'm thinking about doing a similar snorkel without the middle join (mandrel bend).

I'd like to go up from Starke, I've only been as far as Round Hill. One day. Hasn't Brian got a trip in mind for next year?

The middle join takes a lot of vibration and noise out of the equation, but it would look neater.
Yeah, Brian and I were discussing the pro's and con's, it would be a good one to do again after the wet next year, be great if you can come along, the more Isuzu's the better within reason. I won't do it again with one vehicle, just way too isolated. The Gulf would be prime too, I guess we'll have to see how the season pans out. If its anything like this one, you'll definitely need a good snorkle.

Good point about vibration.

It would be a great trip.
